In this study, the effects of decarburization annealing time on the primary recrystallization microstructure, the texture and the magnetic properties of the final product of 0.047% Nb low-temperature grain-oriented silicon steel were investigated by means of OM, EBSD and XRD. The results show that when the decarburization annealing condition is 850 °C for 5 min, the uniform fine primary recrystallization microstructure can be obtained, and the content of favorable texture {111} < 112 > is the highest while that of unfavorable texture {110} < 112 > is the lowest, which is mostly distributed near the central layer. At the same time, there are the most high-energy grain boundaries with high mobility in the primary recrystallization microstructure of the sample annealed at 850 °C for 5 min, and the ∑9 boundary has the highest percentage of grain boundaries. The samples with different decarburization annealing time were annealed at high temperature. It was found that perfect secondary recrystallization occurred after high-temperature annealing when the decarburization annealing condition was 850 °C for 5 min. The texture component was characterized by a single Goss texture, and the size of the Goss grain reached 4.6mm. Under such annealing conditions, the sample obtained shows the optimal soft magnetic properties of B800 = 1.89T and P1.7/50 = 1.33 w/kg.

OM (optical microscopy) and EBSD (electron backscatter diffraction) techniques were used to study microstructure and texture distribution during primary recrystallization under different intermediate annealing temperatures in CGO silicon steels. The effect of intermediate annealing temperature on texture distribution in 3% Si electrical steel was analyzed. The results indicate that the microstructure in primary recrystallization matrix of CGO silicon steel is comprised of equiaxed ferrite grains. Mean grain size of primary recrystallization increases with the rising of intermediate annealing temperature.γ-fiber texture is the dominant component in primary recrystallization matrix. With higher intermediate annealing temperature,111121texture and111110texture increase and111121texture is stronger than111110texture. Goss texture was observed to be decreased firstly and then increased. The content of high angle grain boundaries in primary recrystallization matrix are affected by intermediate annealing temperature. When intermediate annealing temperature is increased, high angle grain boundaries are increased firstly and then decreased. Misorientation distribution in primary recrystallized matrix is affected by primary recrystallization annealing temperature either. The content of high angle grain boundaries are increased owing to higher primary recrystallization annealing temperature, which can be a benefit to the abnormal growth of Goss grains in secondary recrystallization.

Recrystallization texture in grain oriented silicon steel at different annealing temperature is investigated. Normalized x-ray intensities of various orientation components observed in Orientation Distribution Function are used for comparison. The computed CSL boundary distributions about Goss component with annealing condition were calculated. The misorientation angle distribution is also measured in order to find the importance of high-energy boundary with misorientation 20~45° range for the secondary recrystallization of Goss grain. From the analysis of CSL boundary distribution and misorienation angle distribution, the distribution of CSL boundaries does not evidently show any preferred difference between Goss and other texture components. Whereas, the misorientation angle analysis shows that the number of 20°~45° misoriented boundaries is higher around the Goss grains than around other texture components.

Fe-6.5wt%Si silicon steel has excellent soft magnetic properties, but its ductility in room temperature is near zero. A lot of researchers tried to improve the ductility by adding alloy elements. In this paper, we summarized the action mechanism and the content of these alloy elements according to the overseas and domestic research status. Al, B, Cr, RE, et al. improved the ductility of Fe-6.5wt%Si silicon steel in low temperature, but reduced its magnetic properties simultaneously. Ni, Ti, Mn, et al. improved the ductility of Fe-6.5wt%Si silicon steel inconspicuously.

ABSTRACTWacker polycrystalline silicon shows enhanced grain boundary activity after a high temperature (950° C) anneal. It is possible to passivate this effect in a hydrogen plasma. The low temperature (600° C) processing of MIS technology does not activate grain boundaries or deteriorate a passivated specimen. Activated grain boundaries with MIS structures can be used to assess the character of recombination currents. It is concluded that MIS processing is advantageous for passivated polycrystalline silicon.

After two-stage annealing heat treatment process, the near β-Titanium alloys reveal a mixed microstructure containing lath-like α phase and finer acicular α phase in β matrix, leading to the improvement of strength-ductility balance. In this paper, the microstructural evolution and the behaviour of α precipitate during high temperature ageing process were investigated by SEM in a near β-Titanium alloy called Ti-55531.The relationship between α precipitates and the β grain orientation in high temperature was investigated by EBSD. The results show that the α-phase precipitated only at some places of the β grain boundaries at higher ageing temperature (~780 °C); the amount of grain boundary α increased with the decreased of the ageing temperature; after ageing at 720 °C for 45 min, we found that the α-phase precipitated not only at grain boundaries but also within the grains. It seems that the precipitation of grain boundary α is strongly influenced by β grain boundary energy which means that grain boundary α tends to form preferentially at high energy grain boundaries (high-angle grain boundaries); The α-phase precipitates more easily at the grain boundaries where the {110} plane of adjacent β grains have the same orientation.

SUMMARYEight Merino wethers were used in an experiment designed to study the effect of heat stress on ruminal activity and blood urea of sheep newly introduced to Egypt. The sheep were exposed to 15° and 35°Cin aclimatic chamberwith controlled temperature and humidity. The animals were divided into two groups; the first received 100% of the TDN daily requirement and the second was given 125% of the recommended TDN. Rumen and blood samples were obtained from the animals before and at 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 hr after feeding.VFA concentrations in the rumen were higher in sheep fed on rations of high energy content. The levels of VFA at the low temperature were greater than at the high temperature. Ruminal ammonia and blood urea N concentrations in sheep maintained at the low temperature (15°C) were higher than those of the same animals when kept at the high temperature (35°C). This trend was more obvious at high levels of energy intake. It is suggested that the significant changes in rumen VFA, ammonia N and blood urea N in Merino sheep maintained under hot conditions can be considered as adjustments to changes in nutritional requirements in response to high environmental temperature.

In this paper, the research of regeneration of waste EPDM has been done on the basis of a lot of reading of literature and collecting of information. It has neither the pollution of gas emission during the recycling of rubber in dynamic desulfurization tank under high temperature and pressure, nor the high energy consuming during the recycling of rubber using regenerant under normal temperature and pressure. Eventually, the regeneration of waste EPDM under low-temperature became a reality.
